How do I move an active Outlook 365 Data File (OST)

I am using the latest version of Outlook 365 (Version 2011 Build 13426.20274) and have several Office 365 mail account (e.g. "Exchange"). Each one is connected to an OST data file, which Outlook put on drive C:. These files are rather large (over 10gb together) and I would like to move them to a different drive.

What is a safe and easy way to do this?

Thank you.

Thank you MAS, but I have 20+ email accounts and do not want to create a new profile.
I tried adding the ForceOSTPath value to the registry, but Outlook just created a new OST in the C: drive, and not in the folder E:\Application Data\Outlook\OST

I did some more searching and it doesn't look like it is possible to do this except, perhaps, with great difficulty.
